Individual sections will meet to discuss the visiting writer’s work, to do writing exercises and share writing assignments designed to develop specific skills and techniques, and to workshop each other’s work. Each student will complete a creative writing portfolio combining poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction. Taught: Spring term.
